Marcus Jones, Vice President – Science and Technology, DPH Biologicals

As the industry integrates biologicals into management practices, it is important to understand the different classes of biologicals and what they deliver. Before making a recommendation, advisors need confidence in products that work in the field — and increase yield while improving soil tilth, nutrient uptake, and water-use efficiency. Learn how complete biologicals can boost on-farm ROI by manufacturing fertility in the soil. Marcus Jones will share field-tested tips and techniques for using biological technology as a complement or replacement to synthetic fertilizer.

Connections matter in streamlining workflow at your retail location. Learn how FieldAlytics can help facilitate those connections to gain time, efficiency, and productivity.

Mark Dann, Senior Account Executive, Esri

Leverage spatial technologies in an integrated system for rapid awareness, to accelerate decision-making, and improve the efficiency of operations. Use data on the locations of crops, workers, vehicles, and processes to establish more efficient workflows and achieve a better balance between profitability and long-term sustainability. In essence, ArcGIS transforms farm management planning from a reactive response to proactive modeling.

Clint Casey, Channel Manager U.S.A.

Planning is a crucial step in the agricultural production process and it must be designed based on detailed machinery parameters that are customized to match the scope and complexity of field operations. Nearly the entire problem of autonomous – besides self-driving capability – is path planning and automating operational decisions. How do you execute field operations when you aren’t within physical proximity to the field? To help farmers conduct a thorough evaluation of the factors that influence operations planning, the team at Verge Ag has developed an easy-to-use software that simplifies farm planning to reduce in-field decision making. Verge’s software, Launch Pad, is the world’s first interactive web application for farm operations planning that enables farmers to plan, simulate, and validate the movement of equipment in the field and execute field operations efficiently. Features of Launch Pad also enable agriculture equipment dealerships to match the size and functionality of equipment to the scope and complexity of a particular farming operation.

Samuel Fournier, Co-Founder & CEO, ChrysaLabs

Soil is the backbone of agriculture and for growers the biggest asset they have. Why treat it so poorly? With the rising prices of fertilizers and the regulations at the doorstep, we have no other option than to reshape how we are making decisions. The paradigm shift needs to start with more information from the soil. ChrysaLabs is providing real-time soil health and fertility information to agronomists, to support them in their journey of making agriculture more profitable and sustainable.

Michael DiPaola, Chief Commercial Officer, Taranis

With Taranis, learn how remote sensing can identify threats and opportunities in-season and improve planning for next year. During this session you will:

• Learn how the comprehensive crop intelligence platform for advisors and growers will improve ROI, yield, and sustainability. Full-service, leaf-level data capture accelerates decision-making, simplifies management, and improves the bottom line.
• Review real-world examples of how this service can help identify threats and challenges, such as planter distribution efficiency, pre-residual effectiveness, weed escapes, early onset of nutrient deficiencies, precision replanting, disease, and more.
• Find out how to help retailers (advisors) and growers realize tangible ROI in-season, which can inform better planning and operations for the next season.

Shawn Peterson, Director of Business Development, Proagrica

Digital transformation in agriculture is critical to our industry’s long-term success to provide improved customer experiences, lower costs, and build a more resilient supply chain. Hear from Shawn Peterson, Director of Business Development at Proagrica, about key industry challenges and strategies to address them.

Jim Lappin, Director,  SIMPAS Product Portfolio and Alliances, AMVAC

SIMPAS-applied Solutions™ target unmet agronomic needs and enable farmers to implement sub-field management practices with at-plant inputs to align with sustainability best practices. This approach allows farmers to tur yield barriers, such as pest pressure, iron deficiency, nitrogen limitations and poor soil health, into an opportunity to increase yield and profit potential. Join Jim Lappin, Director of the SIMPAS® product portfolio with AMVAC®, who will discuss SIMPAS-applied Solutions applied prescriptively in-furrow at planting with the SIMPAS application system. These proven products offer consistent results, while the new SmartCartridge™ container technology enables farmers to apply only what’s prescribed, precisely where it’s needed.

Dr. Jennifer Wells, Senior Agronomist, Truterra

Dr. Jennifer Wells, Senior Agronomist for Truterra, will share how Truterra supports those within the agronomic ecosystem in achieving their sustainability goals. Leveraging data-backed insights, expert guidance, customized programs and industry connections, Truterra provides the necessary tools for farmers and retailers to drive sustainable practice change at scale.

Stephanie Giard, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Agriculture

Remote sensing is not new in agriculture. But recently, many hurdles have been cleared to find value in gathering intelligence from space. Higher temporal and spatial resolution, easier accessibility, and increased processing capacity have led us to a tipping point. What pushes the use of remotely sensed data in agriculture over the top into the mainstream may be the culmination of high nitrogen prices, sustainability, and food security. Let’s talk about how this painful perfect storm may help us overcome the final hurdles for adoption of this technology
